Hi there!! i'm Oliver, i'm new here but i had a question
So me and this friend, I'll call them S, met about a week ago - we were introduced by another friend, K. A few days after that, S and I both went to a friend group meetup at someone else's house. We watched a movie with the rest of our friends, and somehow ended up holding hands through the whole thing? I guess I kind of went to link arms with them (because i'm touch starved lmao) and they held my hand, and it was really nice. Yesterday we went to S's house to watch some more movies, and the same thing happened, and walking around town we held hands the whole time. Then we went to a social club thing for teens and we spent the whole thing just,, sitting on beanbags and holding hands. They actually rested their head on my shoulder which!! aaaaaa!!! /pos
Anyway, I kind of want to kiss them and maybe date? And I'm reasonably sure they'd like that too, from the interactions we've had so far. But I don't know if it's too soon because, as I said, we only met a week ago.
I think S is a really cool person and I'd love to get to know them better. Any advice?
Edit: I have been in a few relationships before, though none of them lasted more than a few months and all were over the internet i.e. mostly over text/video call and, tbh, all of them felt more like a close friendship, which I think was at least partly due to the lack of physical connection. I have no frame of reference for if this would be different with S, but I'm hoping it would be??
